Sounds kinda terrible to me. If you don't want to host content, don't. I fully support that decision. But don't pretend to be free speech defenders then siphon money to fight your own customer because it makes you feel bet

VB3 was my first real intro to programming. Well, I started with C++ but abandoned it as an impatient child as describing a window in code wasn't fun. I wish we had a new drag and drop WYSIWYG to get people interested. Put Python or

Same. I implemented Otel once and exactly once. I wouldn't wish it on any company. Otel is a design by committee garbage pile of half baked ideas.

What's to stop the bad actors from just printing the logo on their gear anyways? Like they do with UL and N95?

Absolutely. Reminded me of all the effort GTA spent on radio, to much fanfare. The entire production value is fantastic. Glad to see Neal expanding. This is only a half step away from something less jokey, and more marketable. If that&#x

I tried it with a single question to chatgpt - Who would make the best president in 2025? Answer verbatim is below. It feels all kinds of wrong. It's somehow mixing lazy acronyms, "fellow young people" slang, and long words

I'm skeptical on the claim. I think most folks, given the test you describe, would be able to pick out which is human. I think it can get there, but I'm not sure anyone has made one yet. ChatGPT responses are heavily downvoted

I'm usually neutral on suburban hellscape buyers, but it's getting ridiculous. It made more sense to me I guess when 1/4 acre lots were standard. But these...man. The houses appear to be just a few feet from each other, an

My own experience has taught me that titles are kinda dumb, and at times very very insular, which seems to be the case here. I went from eng, to sr eng, to principal eng, back to eng, making more money each time along the way across differe

I have more bank and credit accounts than the average person, probably. 5 bank accounts, and 8 credits accounts I can remember as active off the top of my head. Every single one works with GVoice, except Venmo. Chase, Cap1, Fidelity, etc.

Fair. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 12 times or so shame on me. /s, kinda. The OP claimed it got better in 2017, and it didn't meet my standards. But I'm honest that I haven't tried it in 2 years. If some news

I was a hardcore Firefox user for many years. Today, Chrome just blows it away. Platforms are Android and Gnome Desktop. I tried Firefox again about once a year, up until about 2022, and left disappointed again each time. Rust was import

Same, well, earlier, but Warty was my first time going all in and not dual booting. I don't game, so that doesn't bother me, though I read it works pretty well these days. I've used nothing but Linux since, of various flavors

Never say never. It may be a long while til we see 3%, but 5.5% isn't far off. Some saw about that during the recent dip a few months ago. There are of course a lot of factors, but I think we'll be back in the high fives at some

I agree. Thanks for calling me out. I'd meant to indicate I was answering a question without interest in further political debate, but it came across very dismissive. Apologies.

The modern 'drug store' kinda baffles me. Compared to a grocery - worse selection of grocery items and drugs, worse laid out, at worse prices. Then I wonder who they are trying to cater to. If it's a smaller and quicker gro

While I agree with the general sentiment, I think the same could have been said regardless of which candidate won. It feels like the left moved left, the right moved right, and instead of catering to moderates, threatening them to pick a s

I wasn't in programming in the dot com crash, but everything from news media to friends said it was a bubble and fad. It recovered. By 2008ish, maybe before, they were telling us all the jobs would go to India, and aren't coming

I'll say this: I once had to talk with a team in Belgrade. I was honestly not looking forward to it due to language barrier and such, but I didn't know anything about Serbia. I was pleasantly surprised that that team spoke better

Interesting that worked. My experience with what I consider a similar type thing has been dismal. Perhaps not similar enough? One thing I wish either was better at is finding things from fuzzy or minimal descriptions. My memory is pretty

A lot of these are almost nonsensical, but a few rational ones exist. Probably the most reasonable is just adding another 5 feet to the three point line all the way around(which yes, means widening the court). Drawing your own lines, or an
